Going Out in Style

Custom built Rolls Royce for a local funeral home. A beautiful automobile, but I would rather enjoy it while alive! Dead, for me a wheelbarrow would be as good as a chariot.sad This is pretty much as taken, although I did whiten up the sidewalls a bit and provided a couple of small glisten stars.

Thanks for looking. Any comments or critiques would be much appreciated. Be sure to check the large image for detail.

That's a gorgeous car! If you get the opportunity, you might consider photographing it in the open, along with some detail shots.

What a gorgeus car! The star reflections on the left headlight and grill are a cool touch.

Pretty sweet ride, Phil, even if it's our last.  When I go, I hope either to be buried like Ed Abbey in some unknown place in the desert Southwest, or at least have my ashes scattered there.
